<p>well i think quantitatively, you look very impressive. the only thing i would worry about is standing out- remember that admissions reads thousands of applications....so thats the only little thing that i would worry about...</p>

<p>but as far as everything on your plate and what not, id say you have a fairly good shot. just make sure those essays really ARE beautiful and unique. that is where they will see you SHINE.</p>

<p>good luck! :)</p>
